Björn Ironside (Swedish: Björn Järnsida) (Old Norse: Bjǫrn Járnsíða), [a] according to Norse legends, was a Norse Viking chief and Swedish king. According to the 12th- and 13th-century Scandinavian histories, he was the son of notorious Viking king Ragnar Lodbrok and lived in the 9th century AD, attested in 855 and 858. [ 1 ]
He may be identified with the Swedish king Björn Ironside. In July 856 a Viking chieftain named Sidroc entered the River Seine to pillage. On 19 August he was joined by a fleet commanded by Bjørn. Come winter Sidroc left Frankish waters while Bjørn built a fortified camp on an island called Oscellus, probably Oissel.

Eysteinn offered him safe conduct and the hand of his daughter but Eric only wanted to be lifted and left to die on raised spears, which was granted. Eric and Agnar's half-brothers Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye, Björn Ironside, Hvitserk 2, Ivar the Boneless and their mother Aslaug 1 attack Sweden and kill Eysteinn. [106]
The runestone picture is labelled "This runestone, crowns the barrow of Björn Ironside in Uppland, Sweden. The stone is a fragment; broken pieces of the stone bear false witnesses next to it." I have to think "bear false witness" is a bad translation for "lie", as it really doesn't make sense as is.
